E is for Football.
The groups for World Cup 2006 are drawn, and while there's no "Group of Death" this time around, the USA will face some tough competition in Group E: Ghana, the Czech Republic, and Italy. Update: Salon's Andrew O'Hehir sees trouble ahead for the USA.

Any early predictions for who'll make the round of sixteen?
I haven't seen a lot of these teams...so no. I expect the Netherlands will be a tough match-up for Argentina in Group C, and the USA will have their hands full in E. Some of ther others look easy on paper, but for all I know Togo, Tunisia, or Iran are soccer powerhouses right now.
